Group trip to Biarritz: share the costs, pay less

Biarritz is surf, beaches and Basque elegance. Renting a large house together near the coast turns a potentially pricey weekend into an affordable getaway.

Budget for a group trip to Biarritz

For a weekend, expect around €180-350 / person (no flight). The biggest line item is still accommodation β€” and that is exactly where travelling as a group changes everything. Biarritz is expensive for hotels in summer (~€120/night solo). A house for 6 drops back to around €38/night/person: nearly €246 saved each over 3 nights.

  • A surf session or lesson as a group
  • The Basque Country: Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Espelette
